Old Jail in Molena, Georgia
At Pike Historic Preservation, Inc., our mission is to preserve and protect the historic structures and sites which contribute to Pike County's heritage and our unique sense of place.
The City of Molena and Pike Historic Preservation, Inc. are partnering in the Old Jail Restoration.
The old wooden jail served the city of Molena before incarceration was consolidated into the county jail.
The First Bank of Pike has been serving the people of Pike County since 1901. It received its charter in September of that year as the “Bank of Molena” when a group of local citizens worked together to buy out the Molena branch of the Barnesville Savings Bank.
Pike Historic Preservation, Inc. was founded in 2015 and the first restoration project was the Whiskey Bonding Barn. Today, the Whiskey Bonding Barn is a busy event center in Pike County for weddings, meetings, reunions, parties, and other events.
It is a beautiful venue for any gathering.

Bonding Barns were used for the storage of whiskey and were established by the the U.S. Congress in 1968 in order to delay the payment of federal excise taxes while the whiskey was aging, up to four years.

At Pike Historic Preservation, Inc., we have an organization focused on identifying historic buildings, landmarks and sites. Historic markers at these locations will preserve history for future generations and educate the current generation about the rich history of Pike County. Each marker purchased, depending on size, is over $1000.
When the trains stopped coming through Concord, the depot was sold in 1969. After 53 years, it will return to the city.
In partnership with the City of Concord, Pike Historic Preservation is accepting donations to move the old Concord Depot to Downtown Concord and to restore the depot for use by the community.
